xx + 6 x + 8 = 0
xx + x + 14 = 0
---
the above quadratic equation is in standard form, with a=1, b=1 and c=14
---
to solve the quadratic equation, by using the quadratic formula, copy and paste this:
1 1 14
into this solver: https://sooeet.com/math/quadratic-equation-solver.php

the quadratic has two complex roots at:
---
x = -0.5 + (3.70809924)i
x = -0.5 - (3.70809924)i

find the roots for:
xx + 6 x + 8 = 0
x%5E2+%2B+6x+%2B+8+=+0
(x + 4)(x + 2) = 0
x + 4 = 0 OR x + 2 = 0

You can do the check!!
